Three Weeks for Dreamwidth: WISE (Written, Integrated, Synergistic, Expansive)
This year during Three Weeks for Dreamwidth, I'm writing about goal-setting frameworks for goals_on_dw. Read Part 1: Introduction to Goal-Setting Frameworks, Part 2: The 1-3-5 Rule, Part 3: The 12-week Year, Part 4: ABCS (Achievable, Believable, Committed, Specific), Part 5: Backward Goal, Part 6: BHAG (Big Hairy Audacious Goals), Part 7: BSQ (Think Big, Act Small, Move Quick), Part 8: CLEAR (Collaborative, Limited, Emotional, Appreciable, Refinable), Part 9: Goal Pyramid, Part 10: Golden Circle, Part 11: GROW (Goal, Reality, Options, Way Forward), Part 12: HARD (Heartfelt, Animated, Required, Difficult), Part 13: KPI (Key Performance Indicators), Part 14: MASTER (Measurable, Achievable, Specific, Transforming, Evolving, Relevant), Part 15: NCT (Narratives, Commitments, and Tasks), Part 16: OKR (Objectives, Key Results), Part 17: PACT (Purposeful, Aligned, Continuous, Tracked), Part 18: Tiered Goals, Part 19: Theme Word, WISE (Written, Integrated, Synergistic, Expansive), Part 20: WISE (Written, Integrated, Synergistic, Expansive).
Part 20: WISE (Written, Integrated, Synergistic, Expansive)
WISE stands for Written, Integrated, Synergistic, Expansive. First, the goal must be written down to make it clear and committed. Second, it must integrate well with your overall ideals and strategy. Third, it must synergize with your other goals to maximize results. Fourth, it should promote big-picture thoughts to encourage growth.
This approach offers multiple benefits. The written requirement appeals to people with a text focus and those who like to keep datebooks. Its expansive aspect inspires you to dream big and motivates you to do great things. It requires connection with personal or organizational values, so you don't chase things that might undermine your principles. Its focus on interconnectivity allows you to write goals alongside other people or departments, and work together. Its holistic aspect places goals within the wider framework of your life or organization. It is flexible, able to adapt to shifting circumstances.
This goal-setting framework is versatile enough to suit many different types of goals. It works well when you have several goals that need to coordinate with each other. Not many systems offer this feature. It fits both personal development and organizational development based on inspiration and ideals. It supports goals that focus on personal growth or business value to community rather than meaningless tasks.
